On Thursday October 7, 2010 our group consisting of Ivan Starikov (Salomon), Alexei Visnjakov and Aljona Denshchik started a new winter ski season 2010–2011 in the area of volcano Kozelskij (2189–2250 m).
On the way to volcano Kozelskij
From the town we drove around 9.30 a.m., and an hour and a half after we arrived to basis of the volcano Kozelskij (2189 m). Journey to the volcano was dry and partly broken. The snowline started at a closed ski resorts, which could have been reached without any problem by the ordinary light car. The snow on the slopes of the volcano was hard enough before lunch, but after two o'clock in the afternoon, warm sun little melted it to ideal snow for skiing. Bright sun, clear snow, warm light breeze and a view of the endless Pacific Ocean, which was uncovered the northwestern slopes of the volcano, the day turned into one big pleasure, indescribable pleasure.
